Jennifer M. Riley, 31, of Barberton, was arrested at 5 p.m. Thursday by Uniontown police officers on charges of burglary, felony theft, forgery, misuse of credit cards and unspecified warrants from other counties, according to Stark County Jail records.

Police found Riley and a 29-year-old man in a motel room in Barberton, said Capt. David Brown of the Uniontown Police Department.

Police believe Riley has been talking people into allowing her into their homes, churches and businesses and then stealing from them to support her heroin habit, according to Brown and the jail records.

She is accused of talking an 88-year-old Lake Township man who didn’t know her into allowing her into his home, giving her $50 and returning under the guise of using his bathroom only to steal his cellphone, $200 and credit cards.

Brown said she used the credit cards to charge more than $600 in merchandise at local gas stations and convenience stores.

“She is wanted for similar scams by several other police agencies in Wayne, Summit and Portage counties,” the jail records said.

Riley remained in the jail early Friday, held without bond pending a hearing in Canton Municipal Court.
